Export to Outlook 2007

Have you tried export to email?

From file menu select export then in the dialog box select Export to Email.

You should see Export n Files in the title as in the example below for the 6 files I selected.

If Outlook is your default email programme it should work. I don't have Office 2007 but this works as expected in my newer version of Office.

Thanks for taking the trouble to reply.
If I use the standard Lightroom Preset "For Email" then the Lightroom email app is launched, it does include all 3 files but has no access to my address book so is moderately useless. There does not appear to be a post processing option. I have followed the instructions in the link I placed in my original post "Set up Lightroom to find your email application" and created a User Preset withe Outlook.exe as the post processor. See screen shot:



PS - Outlook is my Windows default email application

Lr's Email Photos doesn't access your address book, which is a bit lame, but you can just click Send and the email then opens in Outlook.

Many thanks - got there in the end although one hitch on the way. In the past I must have set up my Outgoing Server Settings so Send was grayed out (heart sank), however, drop-down in the From field allowed selection of Microsoft Outlook. Success!

Why Lightroom Help suggests otherwise is beyond me!
